Hi Pat,I just noticed this question. Is your rib still out? How are you feeling?Maybe it's too late for this, but I take 1000 mg 3 x day on an empty stomach because I have an old surgery site that left a shoulder being pulled on slightly. It creates a low grade chronic inflammation. This amount of bromelain seems to take care of it.

Hi Victoria Better today, thanks for asking......back is pretty sore as it effects the muscles as well. Did get to the chiro yest..........everything was a mess. Lately, somehow , this seems to happen on a Saturday morning. Now mind you I'm doing nothing exciting on Friday nights. And it is never too late to have the info........actually I think I'll take some for the next couple of days just to deal w/ the inflammation. Thanks for your help.

and the story continues.. remember I told you I had to eat the grilled cheese and fries and ketchup just to sooth my headache? well.. all those avoids just made me feel terrible on Monday.. two days later.. specifically my knees, in which I have arthritis... the Baker's Cyst returned, and I was soo sore! so now I'm back to lots of green tea, no wheat .. lots of veggies, bits of meat... the whole type O arthritis diet... and I am SO much better in just 12 hours... just a true testimony to the fact that once you start eating this way, falling off of the wagon causes serious setbacks! not worth it if you have some real issues as I do!
